How can I view the Azure Active Directory schema.
Does Microsoft provides any document for Azure AD schema(similar to this)?
I want to view all attributes of the User and Group in Azure AD with description. Similar document for Active Directory Domain Services is Active Directory Schema
I am currently exploring the Azure AD Graph API and Microsoft Graph. I want to understand the difference between Active Directory Domain Services and Azure Active Directory with their attributes.
Also, does Azure AD has USNChanged attribute?
Here is User in Azure AD Graph: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/ad/graph/api/entity-and-complex-type-reference#user-entity
And here is User in Microsoft Graph: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/docs/api-reference/v1.0/resources/user
You can find the other entities like Group quite easily from there.

I've registered an application (Any Azure AD directory - Multitenant) in Microsoft Azure AD to be able to work with MS Graph API for creating the groups and teams programmatically. Now I'm able to call the MS Graph API and create the groups. The issue I'm having right now is I have a naming policy like this <Department> - <Group name> in Azure AD and as I call the MS Graph API with the application identity and as I don't have any department for my app, the department part is always empty. I would like to know if there is a way to set department or other attributes for the app in Azure AD?
Thank you in advance!
There is no option to add attribute for the app in azure ad.
We need to move users from an on-premise Active Directory on Windows Server (not Azure Active Directory) to Azure AD B2C. But, we're having difficulty in trying to figure out how to read the user data from the AD using Azure products.
We're thinking about using one of the following Azure products to read from on-premise AD, but it's surprisingly difficult to find if this is possible or not, much less how to do it:
Azure Data Factory
Azure Logic App
Microsoft Power Platform Dataverse (formerly Common Data Service)
Power BI Data Flows
Note: We can't use Azure AD Connect to migrate the users because that tool isn't designed to work with B2C. Reference Microsoft's Azure AD B2C: Frequently asked questions (FAQ).
The Microsoft article Migrate users to Azure AD B2C says that a script needs to be written that uses the Microsoft Graph API to create user accounts in Azure AD B2C. But the article doesn't give advice on how to access the source data, which in our case is AD.
There is no out-of-box Azure product/solution that connects to on-prem AD. Maybe there is a way which requires you create custom connector and custom API for querying AD users. See this post.
The quickest way is using PowerShell cmdlet Get-ADUser to export the AD users and then import them into Azure B2C via Microsoft Graph Create User.
My organisation use Active Directory on-premise (windows server 2012). We also use Office 365 E1.
Logins are different. We add accounts independly.
Now we are however are thinking about using Ad Connect, but we have some concerns.
Will we lose any data on Teams after integration?
Will our users be able to access data previously attached to theirs Azure Active Directory account?
How can we match AAD users with on-premise AD. It uses aliases?
Following MS documents should give a head start for your requirement.

Users in azure active directory has source of authority option. It contains either azure active directory or Windows Server AD. So users which has source of authority Windows Server AD they are not updating their fields. Please clear my doubt.
No, you cannot update attributes for on premise users synced using azure ad connect in azure ad. You need to edit attributes in the local ad.
How do I migrate an existing OU-structure from the old AD to the new Azure AD?
I have been trying to configure the Azure AD Connector Synchronization Tool for this but without success. Not sure what configuration it is supposed to have.
Anyone know? Thanks.
Do you mean the “old AD” is on-premise AD? In some ways, Windows Azure AD is an extension of the on-premise Active Directory, but not all features available in Azure AD. Azure AD does have a domain name, it does contain users and groups. It contains Service Principals, like on-premise AD, that represent applications. But there is no tree of domains, no trusts between domains or forests. Indeed there are no forests, no Group Policy, no OUs.
If you want to create OU, please try Azure AD Domain Services which supports to create custom Organizational Units and group policy in some limited way.
